After using the Olympus Tough TG-6 for about a month, I’ve figured out my favorite combination of settings for everyday use; P mode. Of course it’s possible to manually dial down exposure or adjust the ISO setting if you realize this at the time of shooting, although bright conditions also affect the visibility of the LCD screen, which doesn't help matters. However, once you consider that you’ll be able to capture images that would almost definitely destroy a smartphone (such as 15 metres underwater), it becomes a bit less of an issue that the images aren’t absolutely perfect. While the TG-6 is a great camera of its genre, it’s also worth thinking about picking up its predecessor, the TG-6 if you want to save some money. All of this makes it sound like images from the Olympus TG-6 are bad - they’re not, but they’re far from amazing either.

Let your activities come to life by capturing every detail at the perfect moment, thanks to cutting-edge image technology.

Still, as the TG-6 is all about capturing photos that, on occasion, you wouldn’t risk another camera to achieve, we can make some allowances here. The TG-6 has a wide variety of accessories, from fisheye and telephoto conversion lenses to an elaborate underwater housing. Overall, the Olympus Tough TG-6 is a versatile and reliable photo camera that is built to withstand harsh conditions and capture high-quality images and videos in various environments. The battery is charged while it sits inside the camera via a combination of a USB lead and mains plug connector, rather than a separate mains charger being provided (although one is available).We found these catches to be unusually small for a camera of this type, requiring precise fingernail operation; operating these when wearing thick gloves would be impossible, although on the plus side there's little risk of you opening anything accidentally. The 16 megapixel TG-870 also offers a 180-degree tilting LCD screen, built-in LED light, 1080p HD movies, a 5x zoom lens (21-105mm), and a Live Composite shooting mode.
